“Every morning, when we wake up, we have twenty-four brand new hours to live. What a precious gift! We have the capacity to live in a way that these twenty-four hours will bring peace, joy and happiness to ourselves and others.” ~ Thich Nhat Hanh
January is the “morning” of 2016 and is wide open with opportunities to embrace, engage, and empower yourself. Gathering inspiration, new processes for personal and business development, and getting organized are great ways to start the New Year with your positive foot forward. This is also a great time to really reflect on the hits and misses of 2015. What do you want to bring into the New Year with you? What just needs to go?
Embrace, Engage, and Be Empowered with New Thoughts, New Ideas, New People, and a New You in 2016!

As long as there is even one tiny part of you that thinks the world is doing it to you, the world is going to do it to you. When you know 100% that you create it, you will start influencing the world around you in a much bigger and more positive way.” ~ Gay Hendricks
